OK, since some of us want the very Latest and Best Foamies ... here’s the place to talk about it !!!!

I’d like to start the ball by saying that foam comes in many different densities and materials ... For a really solid foam , one might look up EPP Foam ... Tough , Pricy , resists most solvents , and not delicate at all ... the stuff new car bumpers are made of ... Very Expensive , hard to get ... but worth it if you want the very Toughest material ...
Not to mention the use of woven Carbon Fiber and Kevlar cloths for “skinsâ€

If money is no object, then I would use proper structural foam, purpose-made to be the core in a sandwich structure. A couple of the best are:
Divynicell
Corecell

Both of these need structural skins, but they are so strong that 3/8" or 1/2" thickness is all that is required.

Thanks Angib !!! Structural foam ...

Angib, I see they will even make up a “kitâ€

Nope - you need to send them your CAD drawings, your bank account details, your firstborn, and some other stuff too...

Angib , I could only Imagine !!! Could be quite an “Investmentâ€

If I read the site correctly, you have to be producing a lot of them, too. Interesting though.

Bonnie ... it could be a tidy little business if one had the investment capital ...

Here’s a material that nobody’s mentioned yet .... Spectra.. we tried some a few years back (planes) and it was extremely TOUGH ... Impossible to cut with scissors .. Just like fiberglass cloth , but feels a little softer ... similar working properties, glues/paints well .. Pricy, yes !!! http://www.warwickmills.com/Spectra.asp ... 7AodQEaE_Q
